obviously this will involve trying out the bikes, not just randomly buying. i don't mean for this to be a "WHICH BIKE SHOULD I BUY" thread. just looking for some pointers - like Rat Fink's post. that's good stuff.

i have some decent drop now, but i could go lower. even if i end up not going much lower, i would like to get a setup that lets me have a longer stem.

when i first got set up with 58s, i was very new to cycling. now i'm a lot lighter and more flexible; it's time to get re-fit and try something new. i am thinking CAAD 10 or similar light stiff alu frame.

this is my current setup: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7380051@N03/5675478783/
